Week 5 tournaments are primed to be unique.
We have only one game with a high over/under (52.5, DAL-GB), we have three games projected to be low-scoring (under 40 projected points), and then a swath of games projected to be in the mid-40s — about average.
In other words, there’s only one “hey, I want to target that game” game this week. Fantasy scoring might not be any lower, but this is shaping up to be a week in which contrarian play styles will reign in GPPs.
